SMUGDESK USB C Female to USB A Female Adapter 2 Pack 5Gbps

SKU CH-5SME-74BHS

Two USB-C to USB-A female adapters enable 5 Gbps data transfer and power pass-through for connecting legacy peripherals to modern devices

  • Two adapters included for spare or multi-device setups
  • 5 Gbps data transfer plus simultaneous power delivery
  • Converts USB-C ports to standard USB-A sockets
  • OTG support connects flash drives, mice and keyboards
  • Plug-and-play design requires no driver installation

Two-Pack Gender Changer for USB-C Ports

This SMUGDESK adapter converts a USB-C female port into a standard USB-A female socket, letting you connect legacy flash drives, mice and keyboards to modern laptops and MacBook Pro models. The pack supplies two black units so you can keep one at a desk and carry another for travel. Both adapters handle data and power simultaneously without requiring any driver installation.

Plug-and-Play Installation With No Drivers

Simply insert the adapter into the host USB-C port and attach your USB-A peripheral; the operating system recognises the connection instantly. The compact shell fits tightly, so repeated insertion and removal stays reliable, but the short body can block adjacent ports on densely spaced laptops. Data throughput reaches 5 Gbps only when the cable, peripheral and host controller all support that rate.

Verify Port Role and Power Expectations Before

Confirm the host USB-C port supports USB data and OTG host mode, as some Type-C sockets carry only video or charging signals. The adapter passes power through but does not increase charging wattage or negotiate higher voltage profiles. Ensure your USB-A cable and peripheral are rated for the speed you need, because the converter cannot exceed the slowest link in the chain.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the adapter is delivering the 5 Gbps data rate after plugging it in?

Transfer a large file between the connected USB-A device and your Type-C host, then watch the OS copy dialog; a sustained rate near the adapter's 5 Gbps ceiling confirms the link is operating at full speed.

What exactly is included in the 2-pack and do I need any extra cables?

The box contains two black USB-C female to USB-A female gender changers only; you must supply your own USB-A peripherals and a USB-C host cable to complete each connection.

Both adapters in the pack are identical — is there any reason to choose one over the other?

No, the two units are the same specification — 5 Gbps data, power pass-through and OTG support — so either can be used for flash drives, mice, keyboards or other USB-A accessories on a Type-C port.
